The dynamic response and damage modes of arch dams subjected to explosions are key
topics having been extensively researched in recent years. However, the majority of …

The reliability of numerical simulations of the structural response of nonhomogeneous
materials to high velocity loadings is highly dependent on the used material model and …

As the most widely used material in protective structures, a better understanding of the
resistance of reinforced concrete (RC) to high-speed projectile striking is needed. It has …

The intricate relationship between the mechanical properties of concrete and its internal
microstructure underscores the importance of comprehending explosion performance and …

This study is based on the finite element method (FEM) considering the Miller model to
investigate the blast loading of thermobaric explosives (TBX) in confined spaces and the …

This paper presents an experimental research to study the behavior of fiber-reinforced
concrete slabs with varying fiber volume and type, subjected to contact and close-in …

This paper broadens previous research concerning spalling damage in concrete structures
under buried explosions, by additionally examining the effects of shell thickness and shell …

The failure process of reinforced concrete (RC) slabs under contact explosion is dominated
by localized damages, accompanied by numerous flying fragments. These concrete …

Reinforced concrete (RC) structures are vulnerable to explosion loading, especially under
close-in detonations. Recently, externally bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) …

Due to their high strength, hardness and ductility, steel-concrete composite structures
(SCCSs), which are composed of steel plates and concrete slab, exhibit excellent anti …
